The Los Angeles Rams were dealt a significant blow on Thursday when news broke that the Atlanta Falcons plan to hire Raheem Morris as their next head coach. Morris has been the Rams’ defensive coordinator for the last three years, helping them win the Super Bowl in his first season with the team.
What makes this departure even worse for Los Angeles is the likelihood that other assistant coaches will follow Morris to Atlanta. One of them is even a strong candidate already: Zac Robinson.
According to Jonathan Jones of CBS Sports, Robinson is a “strong candidate” to become Morris’ offensive coordinator with the Falcons. That would make a ton of sense, with Morris and Robinson having worked together for the last three years.
A strong candidate to be Raheem Morris's offensive coordinator is Rams pass game coordinator/QBs coach Zac Robinson, source says.

Robinson has also had interviews with the Steelers, Saints and Patriots for their offensive coordinator roles, but he might prefer to follow Morris to the Falcons.
